The Film
So You Like the Neighborhood
Jean Pesce | USA | 17 min.
“So You Like the Neighborhood” is a dark comedy and true story about a girl who gets dumped by her boyfriend and then evicted from her Brooklyn apartment, all in the same day. When she goes to drown her sorrows at a nearby bar, she befriends some locals who offer to help her with the eviction. They just so happen to be former mafia members, and by “help,” they mean something rather more nefarious. Things quickly spin out of control when she impulsively agrees to meet with a mafia hit man about “eliminating” her ex-boyfriend and landlord. ”So You Like the Neighborhood' is Jean Pesce's Graduate Thesis Film at NYU. It stars Tony Nominee, star of Epix's "Get Shorty" and Showtime’s "Billions": Sarah Stiles.
